Pulp & Paper Mill #1

This company manufactures Gypsum Wallboard on a one-cylinder machine. It furnishes recycled paper (box, cardboard and newsprint) and it operates 340 days/year. The system holds 100,000 gallons at 120°F. It's objective was to reduce sewer loading.

Solution:

Hydrocal installed a CAF-1 50 unit and shut down the original pumps. The plant now shows a 97% reduction in sewer loading by recovering fiber, leasing wells to others, and recycling water to showers seals, and pulper. There is no bacteria or odor buildup, and the chemical cost is $36,000 per year.

Knowing the scarcity of water in the southeast of Spain and how the rain occurs, we considered the design of intake systems in ephemeral riverbeds in order to try to capture part of the runoff flow. The intake systems generally consist of a rack located in the bottom of a river channel, so that the water collected passes down the rack and leads to the side channel. This behaviour has been studied in the laboratory by several researchers. However, due to the many effects that occur on the bars, it is not possible...

The Mudgeeraba drinking water treatment plant, in Southeast Queensland, Australia, can withdraw raw water from two different reservoirs: the smaller Little Nerang dam (LND) by gravity, and the larger Advancetown Lake, through the use of pumps. Selecting the optimal intake is based on water quality and operators' experience; however, there is potential to optimise this process. In this study, a comprehensive hybrid (data-driven, chemical, and mathematical) intake optimisation model was developed, which firstly...

The Romanian water supply company Apavital has installed a monitoring station to safeguard the intake of water from the river Prut. The monitoring station is part of an integrated monitoring that signals sudden changes in the water quality of the rivers, enabling Apavital to take appropriate measures, in the worst case a stop of the intake. The iTOXcontrol is developed by the Dutch company microLAN that has installed almost 100 stations worldwide, safeguarding the water supply in cities such as Amsterdam, Washingto...

The aim of this study is to determine the general drinking water consumption pattern in Mysore city, Karnataka, South India with special reference to cold water (without boiling), and to construct a data base for water consumption habits of Mysore people. In developing countries microbial risk assessment studies, water intake values are often adopted from developed countries. However, these values may not be suitable for the risk characterization of human populations from tropical regions of developing countries....

This study is motivated by the need to understand the temperature dynamics and warm-water temperature withdrawal. This study also recognizes the need for an environmental assessment of the proposed temperature control schemes at New Fengman Dam. An unsteady three-dimensional (3D) non-hydrostatic model is used in the present study to predict the hydrodynamics and thermal dynamics in the forebay and intakes of the New Fengman Dam. The numerical model is validated using hydrodynamic data collected from a 1:120...
